I'm using Selenium Web driver, however, I am preloading a browser by setting the debuggerAddress. I connect through a specified port. I had this working great. Suddenly, it's stopped working. I'm not quite sure what the issue is.
public void launchBrowser() throws InterruptedException {
try {
// Set file path of chrome driver
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:\\chromedriver.exe");
// Start chrome driver with existing chrome browser
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.setExperimentalOption("debuggerAddress","localhost:1250");
// Create object
driver = new ChromeDriver(options);
// Write to console where we are
System.out.println(driver.getCurrentUrl());
}
catch(Exception e) {
console("JacksClass.java","launchBrowser()", "Exception: " + e);
}
}
Before I run the script. I start the Chrome browser with this command in CMD
start chrome --remote-debugging-port=1250
After launching the browser from CMD successfully. Then running the code. I get the following exception after around 1-2 minutes.
JacksClass.java - launchBrowser() : Exception: org.openqa.selenium.remote.UnreachableBrowserException: Could not start a new session. Possible causes are invalid address of the remote server or browser start-up failure.

Driver info: driver.version: ChromeDriver
All of this was working great a month ago. I have the chrome driver installed in the same location.
Finally got it to work. Firstly I tried to access the open port in another browser.
Typing localhost:1250 into the URL bar.
It could not connect. So there clearly was an issue with that port. I have tried many different ports but still had the same issue.
I finally tried port 1258 and then double-checked it with the test outlined above. Typing localhost:1258 into another browser proved the port was active.
Then my program worked as well! How strange! Glad it's working now :)

I have tried everything that has been told in Stackoverflow topics. I have java selenium tests run on remote slave through jenkins. The absurd thing is first test always run and browsers opens, all other tests give me "Timed out waiting for driver server to start".

All the solutions I have tried so far:
Update Java 1_8_271
Update Selenium 4
Update ChromeDriver 87
Check localhost traffic with rawcap
Check localhost dns definiton in etc/hosts
Update Chrome 87
Set Proxy
Check port availability
Check driver path
Kill all chrome and driver tasks before create (Only solution that worked, but not good for parallel tests)
Check localhost url and port is accessible with chrome -> http 200
When I try to reach url and port through java urlconnection in code driver create function catch block), it gives me connection reset but in chrome it gives 200.
All help will be appreciated.
Best Regards

...implies that the ChromeDriver was unable to initiate/spawn a new Browsing Context i.e. Chrome Browser session.
A bit of more information about your usecase would have helped us to analyze the error in a better way. However to start with you can use only one single arguments start-maximized and remove all the other arguments which would get you started. So your effective code block will be:
public WebDriver startChrome() {
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:\\chromedriver.exe");
ChromeOptions chromeOptions = new ChromeOptions();
chromeOptions.addArguments("start-maximized");
ChromeDriverService chromeDriverService = ChromeDriverService.createDefaultService();
return new ChromeDriver(chromeDriverService, chromeOptions);
}
Additional Consideration
Ensure that:
JDK is upgraded to current levels JDK 8u271.
Selenium is upgraded to current released Version 3.141.59.
ChromeDriver is updated to current ChromeDriver v87.0 level.
Chrome is updated to current Chrome Version 87.0 level. (as per ChromeDriver v87.0 release notes).
If your base Web Client version is too old, then uninstall it and install a recent GA and released version of Web Client.
Take a System Reboot.
Execute your #Test as non-root user.
Always invoke driver.quit() within tearDown(){} method to close & destroy the WebDriver and Web Client instances gracefully.

I have tried these:
32/64 bit drivers.
Run it as administrator.
Creating a Try/Catch block.
Other drivers. (Like Operadriver.exe) (Result: Same error)
I think your windows is not english. I am having the same problem. When I tried the same in an english version windows 10 the code works without any problem.
Locale.setDefault(new Locale("en", "EN"));
you can also try this. it worked for me.
Add these lines before instantiating "WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();"
ChromeOptions chromeOptions = new ChromeOptions();
chromeOptions.addArguments("--no-sandbox");
Then add the argument where you have declared Webdriver as shown below:-
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(chromeOptions);
I hope it will help you.
Here you are using
selenium version : 3.12.0
chromedriver version : 2.40
When i tried to run with these configurations (they are latest at present)
I am able to launch the application without any exception and in the logs getting :

Okay !
which is same as your starting logs.
My chrome browser version is :
Version 67.0.3396.87 (Official Build) (64-bit)
I think you should check your .m2 folder and delete
.m2\repository\org\seleniumhq\selenium
folder from there and then again try to download the dependencies.
Also update to latest chrome browser version.
Hope it helps.
This is a problem of Turkish Windows. As it is indicated in exception message the 'ı' character in user agent value "selenium/3.12.0 (java wındows)" is the cause of the exception.
The problem is the string "WINDOWS" is changed to lower case and it results "wındows" because of TR locale. I found that it is generated in class org.openqa.selenium.remote.http.HttpClientand added Locale.US like this.
String USER_AGENT = String.format(
"selenium/%s (java %s)",
new BuildInfo().getReleaseLabel(),
(Platform.getCurrent().family() == null ?
Platform.getCurrent().toString().toLowerCase(Locale.US) :
Platform.getCurrent().family().toString().toLowerCase(Locale.US)));
I compiled the library with my changes and it works now. I also opened a pull request on github.
You can also find my edited fork here.
I am using google chrome driver to automate using selenium. Chrome window always gets crashed in middle of execution when I try to navigate to some other URL. Please note that I get this error only when I try to navigate to same url for the 15th times i.e it works fine till 14th. I am done with upgrading/degrading chrome web driver.
Details:
os.name: 'Windows 8.1', os.arch: 'amd64', os.version: '6.3', java.version: '1.8.0_171'

Update: Guys, I do not get same issue when I create separate instance of chrome driver for each time when I navigate to URL.
I'm trying to launch a new Chrome browser using Selenium Grid but ending up with the below error
Unable to create new remote session. desired capabilities = Capabilities [{browserName=chrome, version=55.0.2, platform=WINDOWS}], required capabilities = Capabilities [{}]
Build info: version: '3.0.1', revision: '1969d75', time: '2016-10-18 09:49:13 -0700'

Driver info: driver.version: RemoteWebDriver
Below is my code to launch the Remote browser
java -Dwebdriver.chrome.driver=C:\chromedriver.exe -jar selenium-server-standalone-3.0.1.jar -role hub
java -Dwebdriver.chrome.driver=C:\chromedriver.exe -jar selenium-server-standalone-3.0.1.jar -role node
cap = DesiredCapabilities.chrome();
cap.setVersion("55.0.2");
cap.setBrowserName("chrome");
cap.setPlatform(org.openqa.selenium.Platform.WINDOWS);
browser = new RemoteWebDriver(new URL("http://localhost:4444/wd/hub"),cap);
Could you please help me on what is wrong?
make sure your code is able to find the chromedriver in your system. You can set the path programatically, you can even download and keep your driver from the below link
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","/path to/chromedriver.exe");
cap = DesiredCapabilities.chrome();
cap.setPlatform(org.openqa.selenium.Platform.WINDOWS);
browser = new RemoteWebDriver(new URL("http://localhost:4444/wd/hub"),cap);
The line java -Dwebdriver.chrome.driver=C:\chromedriver.exe -jar selenium-server-standalone-3.0.1.jar -role node causes a plain vanilla node to be spun off which is agnostic of PLATFORM flavors (i.e., the node is not classified to recognize platform as a trait and is supposed to work as a generic node).
Your test code however seems to be specifying the platform as below
cap = DesiredCapabilities.chrome();
cap.setVersion("55.0.2");
cap.setBrowserName("chrome");
cap.setPlatform(org.openqa.selenium.Platform.WINDOWS);
To fix your problem please change your test code to look like below
cap = DesiredCapabilities.chrome(); // this sets the browser name. u dont need to do it again.
browser = new RemoteWebDriver(new URL("http://localhost:4444/wd/hub"),cap);
Once you have this, you should be able to execute tests properly.
Please dont forget to add the location to where your chromedriver binary exists to your PATH variable before starting the node, so that you dont see issues related to selenium not being able to find the chromedriver's location.
For general overview on working with Grid, you can refer to my blog post
I encounter the same and i found that the platform, browser name & browser version details were not matching the grid configuration. Specifically it was because i was using platrom as windows where i would have used VISTA. Also make sure you are using the hub URL instead of the node URL.Hub URL would be http://hubIP:port/wd/hub.
Refer below screenshot to get the right details about the node:

Do you know what version of Chrome you are using? Chances are the latest since Google likes to autoupdate. You should be using the latest version of Chromedriver. The traceback you posted says you are using version 2.20 (Starting ChromeDriver 2.20.353145 (343b531d31eeb933ec778dbcf7081628a1396067) on port 23239). The latest is 2.25 which Supports Chrome v53-55
